No Khan-frontation on TV screens
Bollywood biggies Shahrukh Khan and Aamir Khan won’t be seen clashing with their television shows in 2018 unlike the big screen. The audience has seen and loved Aamir’s show, Satyamev Jayate for two seasons. While talks on the third season are still in very nascent states, Shah Rukh Rukh’s TED Talks India Nayi Soch will soon be aired. Prior to SRK’s show getting a date and time slot, there were multiple speculations on the two superstars clashing on the small screen with SRK taking over Aamir’s time slot. But this time around, the clash has been avoided. “The two shows have completely different content. Hence, the comparison is irrelevant,” added the source. “While Satyamev Jayate looks at various issues that prevail in India including female feticide, child sexual abuse, rape, honour killings, domestic violence, alcoholism, etc. In TED Talks, every episode will have a specific theme and will also focus on new ideas that will inspire the country.” Aamir is waiting for something satisfactory to come his way so he won’t be beginning the shoot for Satyamev Jayate till then. While TED Talks India Nayi Soch too is a limited episode series, it will premier on Decevery 10, Sunday, at 7pm on STAR Plus.
